Binfield hit Thatcham for 10, but will (likely) miss out on promotion

After the disappointing 5-2 defeat to Eversley & California on Tuesday night that all but ended Binfield’s Allied Counties South Division promotion hopes they made amends by hitting 10 unanswered strikes past Thatcham Town.

Post match, assistant manager Mark Poole spoke to us and said: “This was Joe Cole, Josh Valentin, Matt Day, Liam Vaughan, Dan Best and Tom Adams last game for the Youth as they all now move on to either reserve football with Ellis or to go away to Uni.

“To sum up the season, it has been a good year for the Allieds. We lost four games all year and scored a massive 98 goals! We have produced a lot of players who have gone on to play for the Reserves including those lads that played on Wednesday night.”
